A full winter extravaganza glides into The Lowry next Christmas with C.S Lewis’ classic tale of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Experience a family adventure like no other, as the popular West End production sprinkles its magic across Manchester. Based on C.S. Lewis’s classic novel, this spectacular show brings the incredible, awe-inspiring world of Narnia to life.
Step through the magic wardrobe and join siblings Lucy, Edmund, Susan, and Peter, as they go on an unforgettable adventure in the snowy, wintry world of Narnia. Meet unforgettable characters, from the wise and noble lion Aslan, to the evil, wicked, ice-cold White Witch.

We must warn you though, there’s some heart-wrenching moments and we do recommend you bring those pocket tissues.
